"...THE BEGINNING..."

The Bible states in Genesis 1vs1 that " IN THE   BEGINNING GOD  created the heaven and the earth."[emphasis added]. This is a skeletal framework of how the world was created. The Supreme Being with no background was responsible for creating the Heavens and the Earth. This literally entails that there could have been no beginning without God. In the Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Hebrews [ch1 vs10], he stated that "the foundations of the Earth was laid by God, and that the Heavens are the works of His hands" [paraphrased]. The Psalmist also lay claim to this testimony in Psalm 102vs25, and the book of Revelation [ch10vs6] also confirmed this fact. Beyond this wonderful event that ever took place, it will be wise to appropriate this to our lives as pilgrims here on earth. It is not just enough to have an awareness of the event of creation, but in our daily endeavors, striving and activities, do we actually and deliberately place God  IN THE BEGINNING  of it all

A PRAYER OF BEING USEFUL TO GOD

Father, thank You for the physical instruments You supply when You created us. We have mouths to speak, ears to hear, eyes to see, feet to walk, and hands to work. We dedicate our lives to You and to Your service, whether it is related to evangelism and the church or whether it is the work we do in places of employment or in our community. May the work of our hands be sweet in Your sight, worthy of honor, and a blessing to others so that we all pitch in to make this world a better place to live, until we reach our eternal abode where sin will not be present nor will there be any more sorrow or sadness. And it’s all because of Jesus in whose name we pray. Amen.
